I'm sure they know and are checking to see if it's any of their apps, services or processes and I expect Google is doing the same thing. My battery issues seem small compared to others I see on this forum and the S10 forum.
Because I was already running Android 9.0 and Samsung One UI Beta the public release for me was small around 238 mbs. Something in there caused the battery issues I have.
I'm using device care to monitor the battery usage. I'm not so sure it's 100% accurate. Sometimes apps and services just disappear from the list in the day view panel. So I will wait for the next system update and hope for the best.

Hey,
The good overnight battery usage stats seem to happen once in a while. No rhyme or reason to it. This morning it's back to the way it has been since the the public release in February. It's not the worst but it could be much better.
Two images are from last nights usage and I compare them to the stats I used to see when on Android 9.0 Samsung One UI Beta 4.

Hey,
@Reenie9
I did see one strange thing when I was charging the phone. Battery has charged to 99% and the estimated remaining time until fully charged showed 1 hr.
I unplugged the charger and powered off. Plugged it back in let charge to 100% unplugged it booted into the recovery console and cleared the system cache partition. This worked perfectly.

Hey,
@Reenie9
I'm watching it to make sure that it's not a temporary improvement before I post. So far I see a pretty good improvement in stanby usage and in active use.
Prior to to this update after 8 to 9 hrs on standby the battery level would show around 80 to 82%. The graph looked like a side view of a staircase. Today it stayed almost horizontal and the battery level was at 95%. I think I should give it a few more days. I know it's not perfect but it looks like a pretty good improvement so far.

Hey, I installed the April update this morning. T-mobile SM-G960U. So far I've noticed a new entry in settings apps titled One UI Home which let's me access it's settings while using a third party launcher. I see a much nicer graph in Device Care battery usage. I noticed that in the quick settings panel the night mode icon has. features to turn it on automatically based on sunrise and sunset and a new custom time setting I'm not sure why I still have 2 of them they both seem to activate night mode and open the same settings panel when long pressed. Has anyone noticed some new features or improvements? Let us all know if you do. Thanks, CLF

Hey,
You might try opening system settings /apps/ Samsung Internet. You should see a gear icon next to the title. That will open the Samsung Internet settings and you can select the default homepage to quick access. It's a good place to start without all the clutter. The Settings, favorites,, home button, tabs button are located at the bottom of the page. Sometimes you have to scroll up or down to get it to show

Samsung Internet app settings and at the top of the settings page setting for homepage. you should see multiple options for selecting quick access, current page etc. Below that you have options for selecting the default search engine Google, Yahoo, Bing etc. I'm using quick access with Google as the default search engine and have the Google search page shortcut there for switching back and forth. No advertising, or news feeds or any of that stuff.

Hey,
@userwRWMKfIE7s
@gotzaDroid Posted about this issue five minutes after he installed the March update. I installed the March update pulled down the quick settings panel and saw the bright orange marker indicating something new has been added. Like everyone else I tapped on button order and thought great a new night mode feature and dragged it into the active panel. Settings stopped and every time I pulled the quick settings panel down the same error. I opened developer options and removed the first night mode entry and that took care of it. He did the same and verified that it stopped the error.
Later out of curiosity I opened developer options and put the duplicate back and dropped it back into the active panel and the settings stopped so I moved it back up to the top and setting stopped again but only one last time. After that I open the notification panel and the quick settings panel a dozen times and everything was fine. I opened developer options and removed it from the quick settings panel completely.
The end.
Thanks for asking and I hope one of these two methods worked for you as well.
Take care,
CLF

Hi,
Does the night mode icon you have in the active quick settings toggle night mode on and off? It should light up blue?
The duplicate doesn't do anything when we tap it or long press it
Dveloper options.
Open settings / about phone / software information and tap baseband version 7 or 8 times until you see the message developer options is available.
Back out to the system settings main page and scroll down to the bottom and Tap developer options Once open scroll down to Quick Settings Developer Tiles and tap on it. You should see 2 night mode entries at the top of the list. Turn off the first entry and make sure the second entry is turned on. This is the method I used to remove the duplicate icon from the quick settings panel
If you have no more use for developer options scroll up to the top and turn it off

I just cleared the cache and data using settings apps and also from within the Samsung Pass app. I also deleted every entry listed for web sites and apps.
If I opened a website login page that was listed in Samsung Pass it would notify me to use my biometrics to enter the email address and password When I used my fingerprint the notification fades away but doesn't enter the data
I'm going to visit a few login pages to see if it offers save the login information so I can use Samsung Pass the next time I visit and log in.

Update. Login page My T-mobile, My AT&T, Florida Sunpass, Samsung Community, Samsung Pass doesn't seem to be active.

Hey
The March update accidentally added a new night mode switch to the quick access panel If you pulled the quick settings panel down and used the button order settings to drag the new night mode icon down to the active panel it will crash settings
Try moving the new icon back to the neutral zone to see if that stops the settings crash
If that doesn't work you have to open developer options and scroll down to quick settings developer tiles and turn off the first entry titled night mode.

I've been trying to break mine and it just keeps working.
Typing in the wrong password 15 times didn't have any effect at all Not even a warning message.
The last thing I'm going to try is reset the locked Notes password and add a new one to see if the new password is applied to the original locked Notes.
Edit No luck with that it just changed the password and applied the new one to all the locked Notes. I used the current password and the forgot password options. No problem with either one. I give up I can't seem to break the darn thing. Sorry I couldn't help

This is without opening a note so if you're getting the error when you open the the settings and it tries to login to your Samsung account then that's an issue with not being able to log into your Samsung account.
The first image is a the notes setting main page and you tap lock notes.
The second setting page you select change password
The third page you select forgot password and turn on fingerprints so you can use either one.
That error shouldn't show up during this because it takes you to your Samsung account to change the password.
This works for me I hope that it works for you

. I used forgot password to get access to my locked Notes or we can use the menu in notes settings Make sure you have sync on for testing A really important part of the reset password process is to make sure to enable use fingerprint to unlock notes. So far there are no issues with accessing locked Notes. I haven't tried using enter password because in the past that is what caused the issue. Using the fingerprint is working good.. Later I'm going to try using password just to see if it triggers the bug and locks me out. So my advice is to use forgot password to update the information in the Samsung account accosiated with notes.

I just used enter password. It works good no issues.. It would be nice set it up to use the feature that automatically enters the password without having to use an enter key.

We don't have to close the app. We can use the navigation back button or gesture to go to the messages app home page. Put the phone down and you'll get the notification sound and edge lighting display when they reply Turn the screen on and Tap the conversation. It only mutes the notification when the conversation is open

Yes I agree and I opened everything I could think of to see how big the headers are and if they are collapsed or open.. So I have changed my mind even though it doesn't really bother me I like the idea of making it much smaller and reversing it would be great too. I also think that when we open conversation we should be able to swipe right to left to slide out the customization panel We can already swipe left to right to close it. It's a work in progress maybe will see some new designs once they put all the fires out

Yes I hope they are looking into this too. I'm glad you posted about this. I had the Google App Disabled, turned off background data usage, removed its permissions, put it to sleep but didn't see any substantial battery improvement. I did another factory data reset yesterday. That makes 3 for me This time around I set up just as normally would and only have two apps added to the sleep catigory. T-mobile app for causing an unrelated issue and the Google app because I don't use the assistant. I've paused all the data collection services. I'm going to leave everything the way it is and hope they can find what's causing this. See you later, CLF

I did another Factory data reset yesterday. Set Everything up just as I always do. No Auto restore or manual restore. One by one. Charged to 100% and let it sleep for eight hours and seventeen minutes. Battery level was at 84%. No third party apps installed. Same two apps listed. Samsung push shows active for 4hrs and Google services shows 4hrs running in the background. They might not be using a lot of Battery but they might be keeping the phone awake I don't really know. I wiped the system cache partition in the recovery console this morning I have done this before but it doesn't resolve the issue on my phone. Power off the phone. Press and hold the volume up key the Bixby key and the power key at the same time. Wait for the android logo to popup and release the keys. You should be in the recovery console now. Use the volume down key to move down the menu to the entry wipe system cache partition. Once that is highlighted press the power key then press the volume down key again to select yes. Press the power key and it will wipe the system cache partition and return you to a highlighted item labeled restart the system. Press the power key and it will boot up. The other things you mentioned Samsung experience never uses that much Battery on my galaxy S9 it's more like 8 or 9 % on the day. It varies. Since running with no third party apps doesn't improve the Battery usage I installed my usual apps. Nova launcher prime, kLWP, KWGT, Power Amp, Color note, Swiftkey, and a few others. Nova Launcher is set as the default home and KLWP runs as an overlay on top of that. With these apps running I have always been able to put the phone to sleep for 10 to 11 hrs and wake it up at 95% Battery level. Be careful in the recovery console make sure your on the wipe cache partition.

Hey Sorry to hear that but it's nice to know that you you understand. Yesterday device care battery management reached the end of the it's learning curve after the factory data reset. It now predicts the time remaining based on the last seven days of battery usage. Along with that the adaptive battery ai has also completed the initial learning process It has now moved all the listed apps into the proper buckets. While in the learning process almost all of them were in the active, working set or frequent buckets. Now most have been placed in the rare bucket. Some are active and one or two in working set like gallery camera, my files, internet and some are exempt. They are not optimized. I was hoping this would improve the battery life. Maybe it has while while the phone is active I don't know yet On the other side I still see the exact same issue as you Yesterday I put the phone asleep for eleven hours and fifty-three minutes I woke it up and had 79% battery level. Cell Standby and Device idle used 5%.Google Services and Samsung Push used 0.5%.I can see the graph drops all night long I'm not sure if you noticed the edit in my first All I did was charge to a 100% and put in safe mode overnight It had no positive effect at all If I find a solution I'll post it here. Otherwise as you said the four of them really should take a look at this issue and help us out Thanks for the post

I was running beta four I charged the battery to 100%. Ten to eleven hours later I pick up the phone and I'm always at 94 or 95%. T-mobile rolled out the official Android 9.0 Samsung one UI version a few days ago I charge the battery to 100%. Seven or eight hours later I pick up the phone and I'm at 72 to 84%. I've wiped the cache partition and factory data reset. All the usual suspects are off. NFC, Nearby device scanning, Location sub menu options, Bluetooth, Advanced sound, All vibrations, Wi-Fi calling, Google assistant app disabled, All Google data collections are paused just to name a few. I see something new when I wake the phone Samsung push service and Google play services running in the background since 12:00 midnight. They show only 0.5% battery usage. There are no other entries in the battery stats for apps running except for the usual cell standby and device idol that use about 4 mbs. So I have to wonder where did the missing 20% or 30% go. It's not much better when I'm using the phone the battery level drops a lot faster now This is not a user setting or a poorly written 3rd party app causing the issue Edit Safe Mode, charged to 100%, put the phone to sleep for Ten hours and Twenty minutes. Wake up battery level is 84%. Same two apps running in the background Google play services and Samsung push service. Used 1%. Cell Standby and device idle used 5%. I would appreciate sending this issue to the development team. Google ,Samsung, and Tmobile
